If you are a little adventurous I'm running Android N developer release and it's smooth as silk. Loving the reply from the notification bar for texts. I use it as my daily driver over my Note 5, it's that stable for me.

I love Nova Prime. More options like Unread Counts, gesture settings, icon size, and so on. It's endless.

But Solid Explorer is a must have and everything else is optional. I travel so I have a lot of travel apps. I also use QuickPic for photos and MX player for Video.

Why why would want to mess up pure android experience with nova? Nova prime is my absolute go to on none nexus phones. Zero need for it on nexus phones. Just my opinion.

Why have an android phone and not be able to fully customize your homescreens? I spent one day with Google Launcher and had to switch to Nova. The icons are way too big and to squished together. Nova lets things breathe a little.

SImple - yes, I too have the 6P for pure android, what I use Nova for is to make the icons smaller and expand the grid that the icons use. Oh, also TeslaUnread. For me it let's me take the pure android experience and tweak it slightly to my liking, which is the whole point of Android.

Guys, you are missing the point. I already said I use Nova Prime on none Nexus phones. I'm not arguing the desire to customize your Android devices. I just don't see a need for Nova on my 6p. Again, just my opinion and we all can have what we like :).

I'd lime to try the Google Now launcher for a while but would want to move my settings from Nova. Too much of a pain to set everything up from scratch.

If you like podcasts - I can't get by without pocket casts. May end up switching to google music eventually, but right now it doesn't have the features I want built in to podcast mode yet.
